Monitor any water quality parameter you collect, no matter where it has been collected from. Store quality data from manually or automatically collected spot samples, and even continuously collected samples such as those from auto-samplers and sondes.

Use KISTERS solutions to manage all of the various data from your Urban Water Management programs. From water distribution to water treatment, infiltration and inflow studies, groundwater, as well as long term precipitation monitoring and real time control systems. An optional water quality module is also available to manage your discrete sample data.

The management of hydro-meteorological data demands the highest process standards. Both recorded and derived data from various observation areas are archived together, edited in graphical and tabular form, analyzed, evaluated and presented. In order that these tasks are carried out efficiently and economically, the support of a specialized software solution is required. Our water data management solutions offer a comprehensive spectrum of functions for integrated collection, processing, quality control, evaluation and publication of data from extensive hydro-meteorological measuring networks.

The reasons for testing water quality in groundwater are numerous. Monitoring water quality and conducting tests is a good way to gather data on aquifer hydraulics. It can also be used to monitor parameters such as rhodamine, which helps to understand movement of underground water. Human activities can have an impact on groundwater quality, and conducting tests in this field can help to track these effects. Leachate from landfill and fertiliser can both find their way into groundwater. It is important to monitor these pollutants and to test the quality of groundwater, as it helps to identify and mitigate potentially harmful conditions.

There are strict regulations in place surrounding waste water, which makes it very important to monitor. Even small changes in aquatic ecosystems can have a huge impact in the chemical makeup of water, temperature, etc. By using real time monitoring on water quality, pollutants can be detected and mitigated before they pose a potential threat to these ecosystems and enter the water course. The rugged AP-2000 allows for real time testing of wastewater and helps to minimise risk of any potential fines. It is works to protect the device and allow for other essential parameters to be tested. Because it is portable, it is easy to transport between locations, and you can also save money from onsite visits by getting instant data readouts using telemetry.

GIS is a powerful tool for developing solutions for water resources such as assessing water quality and managing water resources on a local or regional scale. Hydrologists use GIS technology to integrate various data and applications into one, manageable system. The suite of tools contained in Arc Hydro facilitate the creation, manipulation, and display of hydro features and objects within the ArcGIS environment.

Testing phosphonates in hard water can be difficult due to interference from high levels of calcium. Here we present a phosphonate test method for hard water samples. The method is based on a chemical masking of the calcium.
The WAT hard water phosphonate test uses C30 Spectrophotometer to measure the chromogen PMB and digital thermoreactor to digest the phosphonate compound.
The thermoreactor capacity of 16 simultaneous vials provides for running critical data quality assurance samples.

The ability to collect useful data about sediment transport and other pollutants closely coupled to SSC (such as nutrients, e-coli, phosphates and nitrates) is dependent on the timing and frequency of manual grab samples during run-off events. Most sediment and pollutant is transported during a small number of storm events which are infrequent and unpredictable. When they do occur, trained personnel or the proper equipment may not be available to collect grab samples. An automated pump sampler can eliminate the need to sample manually, but for the expense of a rechargeable power system, the autosampler, and possibly a datalogger and a typical turbidity probe, you’re no better off. With an automated pump sampler driven by the DTS-12 digital turbidity sensor and controlled by the Axiom H2 datalogger, you obtain a better understanding of the water’s quality, while taking a minimum number of samples, reducing site visits and saving lab analysis costs.

Wastewater treatment plants (WWTP) are subject to large variation in flow and load, not to speak of uncertainties on the composition of the incoming wastewater. On top of that, the activated sludge treatment process, as used by the vast majority of treatment plants, is difficult to control due to the complex behaviour of the biological process. Nevertheless WWTPs are run 24/7, with operators and management challenged to meet ever tightening environmental regulations.

In order to meet the operational demands of modern-day plants, a new control system was developed. Proprietary control algorithms were introduced based on a large set of data from nutrient measurements in various WWTPs. The customer`s benefits are twofold: (1) achieving optimum effuent quality and, at th same time, (2) lowering energy needs and dosing of commidity chemicals.
